Fitness First Paragon is the brand's Platinum club on Orchard Road, occupying 17,000 square feet across Levels 8 and 9 of Paragon Shopping Centre in the heart of Singapore's main shopping belt. The space features a dramatic double-volume design with views of the city, and it sits a stone's throw from both Orchard and Somerset MRT stations on the North-South Line.
The gym floor is built around serious equipment: more than 75 sets of Grade 'A' Technogym cardio machines with audio and visual entertainment, plus over 40 pieces of weight machines, free weights, loaded weights, a freestyle area, a monkey bar and a private personal training zone. Three dedicated studio spaces — a Group Exercise studio, a cycling studio, and a Mind & Body studio for yoga including Hot Yoga — host the class timetable, and Pilates is on the programme too.
Recovery and comfort get real attention here. Members can relax in a lounge with complimentary beverages, reading materials and computer terminals with complimentary internet access, and the club offers a sauna, steam room, towel service, changing rooms with complimentary toiletries, lockers and rental shoe lockers. Certified personal trainers build customised, internationally recognised programmes with flexible schedules, and progress is tracked through MYCOACH, an 11-point assessment and progress tracker that also covers nutrition and well-being guidance.
The club opens 6:00am to 10:00pm on weekdays, 7:00am to 9:00pm on Saturdays and 8:00am to 9:00pm on Sundays and public holidays. Membership options include corporate plans for employers and FITPASS, which has no monthly fees and no commitment period; a free trial experience can be booked online.
On Levels 8 and 9 of Paragon Shopping Centre, right in the middle of Singapore's main Orchard Road shopping belt, Fitness First Paragon is the brand's Platinum-tier club for one of the city's most demanding neighbourhoods. Spread across 17,000 square feet, the club makes the most of its address with a dramatic double-volume space design and views over the city — a very different atmosphere from the typical basement gym.
The club's centrepiece is a large, state-of-the-art gym floor. It holds more than 75 sets of Grade 'A' Technogym cardio equipment, each with built-in audio and visual entertainment, alongside more than 40 pieces of weight machines. Around them you'll find free weights and loaded weights zones, a freestyle area for functional training, a monkey bar, and a private zone reserved for personal training sessions.
Fitness First Paragon runs three dedicated studio spaces: a fully equipped Group Exercise studio, a cycling studio for group indoor cycling, and a dedicated Mind & Body studio for yoga — including Hot Yoga. Pilates is part of the club's offering too, and the full class timetable is published online so members can match sessions to their schedule.
Booking is handled through the Fitness First mobile app, which lets members secure class spots up to six days in advance. The app is also where membership details, profile updates and real-time member privileges live — plan, book and get rewarded, as the club puts it, all in one place.
For members who want more structure, the club's certified personal trainers build customised programmes using internationally recognised training methods. Schedules are flexible and personalised, workout plans are tailored to individual goals, and progress is tracked with MYCOACH, an innovative 11-point assessment and progress tracker. Trainers also provide guidance on nutrition and general well-being, which rounds the programme out beyond the gym floor itself.
One thing that sets this club apart is what happens after the workout. There's a members' lounge stocked with complimentary beverages and reading materials, plus computer terminals with complimentary internet access — a genuinely useful spot to decompress or catch up on email before heading back out. Recovery facilities include a sauna and steam room, and the club provides towel service, changing rooms with complimentary toiletries, lockers and rental shoe lockers. WiFi is available in-club, and all of it adds up to a setup that works whether you train before work, at lunch or straight from the shops downstairs.
Location is a genuine strength: the club is a stone's throw from both Orchard MRT Station and Somerset MRT Station on the North-South Line, making it an easy stop whether you commute through town or combine training with a trip along Orchard Road. The club sits at 290 Orchard Road, #08-13, within Paragon Shopping Centre.
Fitness First offers several ways in. Alongside standard memberships there are corporate plans for companies that want to keep employees happy, healthy and productive, and FITPASS — an all-new option with no monthly fees and no commitment period, pitched as pure fitness freedom. Anyone curious can also sign up online for an exclusive free trial experience with, as the club puts it, no strings attached.
Opening hours run from 6:00am to 10:00pm Monday to Friday, 7:00am to 9:00pm on Saturdays, and 8:00am to 9:00pm on Sundays and public holidays — long enough to train before the office or late in the evening. Whether you come for the Technogym floor, a Hot Yoga session or a structured personal training programme, the Paragon club packages serious equipment with the polish you'd expect from an Orchard Road address.
